| 13:16 EDT |  | NTDOY, SNE, MSFT | IHS iSuppli: Wii U shortages likely
Nintendo’s (NTDOY) latest games console, the Wii U, makes its global sales debut in the U.S. on November 18 and is forecast to outperform the sales of the hugely popular Wii in its opening months on the market, according to IHS iSuppli. Based on expectations of shipped Wii U units and overall consumer activity, however, IHS iSuppli believes this will lead to supply shortages over the holiday shopping season, leaving some shoppers empty-handed and having to wait until the new year to satisfy their need for the next-generation Nintendo product. "As a result of the tight inventory control Nintendo employs to manage its supply chain and strong consumer demand in these opening weeks of launch, we believe it's highly likely that retailers will experience some Wii U shortages in the run-up to Christmas. Stock will be replenished in ongoing fashion, but some unlucky shoppers may well miss out," said Piers Harding-Rolls, senior principal analyst, head of games at the firm. Reference Link |
